The Essential Books To Understanding Donald Trump

Real-estate mogul and reality television star, Donald J. Trump and his huge ego are taking the scene of the presidential race. Beside he has never held political office, Mr.Trump is confident that his negotiating skills, business acumen and –as he can’t help to remind us every single time he gets the chance– his wealth, will easily make him the president of one of the biggest and powerful nation on earth, the United States of America.

Proud republican, Trump’s position is clear: he will make America great again! From his official page donaldjtrump.com Mr.Trump shares his 7 step political program:

Carpenters wanted!: he promises he will build a big, big wall -and make Mexicans pay!

Band Aid for Everybody: he will make health a business! by selling insurance across state lines!

Zi Jin China!: he will let China off the Hook. No, not Blac China. The real China.

Veterans of America, You Will Be Great Again: he will take good care of our veterans. This is actually an admirable gesture.

Run America Run: and better be fast! According to analysts Trump’s economic plan would double the national debt over the next decade. Of course, the tax cuts might boost economic growth but, the economy must grow as fast as 9 percent a year for a decade to make the plan revenue neutral and 11 percent to balance the budget. Sci-fi isn’t it?

Just because you can:he will give you more arms because hey, it’s my damn right to shoot you in the a#s with my tac evo assault rifle… just because I can! (ironic)

Watch outpunks!:he will fill prisons up to the roof and finally make America win the first prize for the best “Incarceration Nation“. (very ironic)

Mass deportation: at a cost estimated between $100 billion and $300 billion he will arrest and remove almost 11 million undocumented immigrants, a 20-year process.

Want more? No problem, because we can always rely on him for providing us with the most ridiculous and outrageous quotes. A recent article appeared on Marie Claire Uk exposed 29 of the most idiotic ones.
But who really is Donald J. Trump? Here the essential books to understanding the man, the billionaire and the candidate.

Trump. The Greatest Show on Earth: The Deals, the Downfall, the Reinvention by Wayne Barrett

Barrett paints an intimate portrait of Trump himself, a man driven by bravado, obsessive self-regard, and an anxious ruthlessness to subdue his rivals and seduce anyone with the power to aid his empire.

Reckless as often as he is brilliant, reliant on threats as much as on charm, and ultimately a cautionary tale: is this the man we want to lead the world?

Trump This!The Life and Times of Donald Trump, An Unauthorized Biography by Marc Shapiro

What guides Trump to the decisions he makes? Is his personality real or just a caricature driven smokescreen? Like all larger than life personalities, Trump has cultivated his public image well. He’s been selective in what he’s let out and, when pressed, he’s been quick to deny.

Trump This! The Life And Times of Donald Trump: An Unauthorized Biography has dug deep into the truth that is Donald Trump.

Crippled America: How to Make America Great Again, by Donald J. Trump

It’s time to bring America back to its rightful owners -the American people. Distancing himself from the politicians, Trump promises less talk and more action. Ready to shaking up the establishment, bring America back -respected by allies and feared by adversaries.

How to fix a failing economy; how to reform health care; how to rebuild our military and start winning wars; and how to bring jobs back to America by closing our doors to illegal immigrants, and pressuring businesses to produce their goods at home.

I will try to stay as neutral as possible at least while suggesting some really good books about the candidates and politics in general.
I think that most people aren’t informed enough to vote and it would be great to share thoughts and opinions 🙂
